3M

since our action classics' "odyssey" has just been nominated for an award (oh, i didn't mention that a million times yet? i will!), i thought i'd share some art from one of the upcoming books, 'the three musketeers". words by the indestructible (believe me, i tried) tim mucci, and art by steve walker:

ps - you can see some pages from the soon-to-be-award-losing "odyssey" here.

Wow this comic is wonderful, and I being a huge fan of greek mythology I love the designs you gave to the characters especially the gods. I'm happy that you were nominated and I hope you win. Good Luck!

fabian - those designs are by steve walker. we'll definitely be posting more art for that (and other upcoming books) soon!

djordje, zawadi, nikolay - thanks! it was certainly a lot of work! and most of the coloring was done by the amazing manu tenderini, who does color (and art) for several european comics, including the extremely cool "wonder city", which SHOULD be a feature cartoon, but for some reason isn't. he's also one of the founders/professors at the venice comics university.

steve - there are other artists. rad sechrist did "tom sawyer", and both "odyssey" and "oz" were SUPPOSED to be done by other people. "musketeers" is being done by another artist, as is "wind in the willows". so there is certainly room for others besides me;)BUT... "once and future king" is not in public domain, so we won't be doing it. although it is a pretty amazing story!
